About Dr. Solberg

R. L. Solberg, Ph.D. is an author, professor, and the founder and president of The Biblical Roots Ministries, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to grounding believers in Scripture, defending historical Christianity, and exposing theological error through faithful Bible teaching and apologetics.

Based in Nashville, Tennessee, Dr. Solberg lives with his wife of more than 34 years (and her four cats). He brings over two decades of study in theology, apologetics, and philosophy, both formally and through independent work. He holds a Ph.D. in Bible Exposition from Liberty University, a Master of Theological Studies from Williamson College, and completed Biblical Hebrew studies remotely through the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He also serves as an adjunct professor of theology at Williamson College.

Dr. Solberg writes thoughtfully on the Old Testament roots of the Christian faith, the New Covenant, and the Gospel. He’s known for his book Torahism: Are Christians Required to Keep the Law of Moses? and apologetic Bible studies like The Law, The Christ, The Promise (Zondervan), along with teaching resources through his blog, podcast, and speaking events. His speaking ministry combines scholarly insight with accessibility—making complex theological issues understandable and practical for everyday believers.

Dr. Solberg joyfully affirms the core doctrines of historic Christianity as expressed in the Apostles’ and Nicene Creeds, and he’s passionate about helping others do the same.

An overseer, as God’s steward, must…hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it.
